And now the photo is removed in a piece of institutional vandalism --Henrygb 23:32, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How the FUCK does anything get done on Wiki. Every time a decent change is made people come round and Remove/Delete/Reverse it. WTF is that all about?! Bring back the photo, it was good and it was legal. Matthewfelgate 22:24, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pls upload the photo again Henrygb. Matthewfelgate 17:58, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No point --Henrygb 00:08, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

the expense cotroversy section[edit]

There is to much unnecessary detail in the section, the stuff about artex ceilings, the section needs a more encyclopediac tidy, there are no illegal activities, so it reads like a tabloid attack. If there are no objection I will remove the excess detail and mellow it out. (Off2riorob (talk) 16:48, 18 June 2009 (UTC))[reply]

The artex ceilings claims is especially notable as it was a modification of the property which was unnecessary and down to personal taste - it's one of the most well known of her claims and certainly need to remain. The claims which forced her to resign are obviously more important, but the artex one is still needed.--Shakehandsman (talk) 23:16, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have to dissagree with you about the artex being notable at all. A lot of the outrage about mp expenses is just the press selling papers. The reasons she decided to resign are very relevent, the artex is not, the was a culture of this throughout parliament and the little details are newspaper fillers not encyclopedia entries.(Off2riorob (talk) 22:25, 21 June 2009 (UTC))[reply]

I have re-inserted the deleted paragraph about expenses. It is absurd to try to argue that one of the most significant MP stories that led to the biggest crisis in UK politics this generation is "just the press selling papers". Please stop deleting relevant and referenced material. Off2riorob, you have a largely Labour oriented edit history - it begins to look like you are attempting to play down this for party-political reasons, so give it a break. Fig (talk) 20:39, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks Fig, some excellent points.--Shakehandsman (talk) 17:46, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Father[edit]

I think her father was a lawyer or law lecturer, perhaps with a PhD, but not a medical doctor.22:19, 21 June 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.158.249.239 (talk)

Right Honourable[edit]

The article had her as having the title "The Right Honourable", which I've removed because she was never in the cabinet and doesn't appear on the Privy Council's list of members http://www.privy-council.org.uk/output/Page76.asp 87.80.97.137 (talk) 07:46, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
